Upgrade Daily Use Hand Trucks
Are your employees still using old, heavy dollies? It’s time to upgrade to lightweight, aluminum hand trucks. These are great for various daily tasks, and the best can handle loads up to 500 pounds. Find an ultra-customizable one, so you can design it to fit your team’s daily tasks. For example, if your team delivers to customer homes regularly, upgrade to non-marking wheels to keep floors safe from damage. You can also change the ergonomics of the handles to better suit your employees and the items they regularly move.
Choose a Solution for Bulky Items
Your employees should always have the right tool for the job. While hand carts are often the answer to this, your team might move objects that are too bulky or heavy for a traditional hand truck. That’s where the heavy duty hand truck comes into play. Also called an appliance truck, they are better suited for larger, heavier things like fridges, stoves, and any other bulky items up to 800 pounds. They also have optional accessories to help move large items easier, including side wings and self-retracting ratchet straps to hold the items in place.
Move Up and Down Stairs with Ease
Do your employees have to move items up and down stairs on a regular basis? If so, make the switch to a powered stair climbing dolly. With the busy season approaching, they will have to tackle more stairs, and a powered stair climbing dolly can do much of the work for them. A heavy duty version is also available, perfect for professional movers trying to get a piece of furniture onto the second floor of a home. Since the powered stair climbing dolly does nearly all of the work, your employee can focus on staying in an ergonomic position rather than lugging the hand cart up or down one step at a time, causing so much unnecessary strain.
Achieve Enhanced Flexibility
Moving oddly shaped objects is part and parcel for professional movers and in many retail situations. While many items will fit on a traditional hand truck, others might be too long or oddly-shaped. With a convertible hand truck, your employees can quickly turn a classic upright hand truck into a horizontal hand cart in four-wheel mode. This makes moving longer or oddly shaped items much easier. Plus, the hand cart can support more weight (up to 1,000 pounds) in four-wheel mode. When finished, the convertible hand truck quickly transforms back to the upright position for storage.
Look for Specialized Tools
Some jobs require specialized tools, such as a hand lift truck. It functions similarly to a forklift truck but has a smaller footprint and doesn’t require a license. That means it’s perfect for smaller warehouses or even restocking shelves in a retail or grocery store. The best ones have no problem lifting items that weigh up to 350 pounds, thanks to an innovative electric screw drive action. Instead of bending down repeatedly, this hand truck can help keep your employees safe and comfortable.
